Complain for change: ever appealed a parking ticket?

I took my son swimming and parked at the local leisure centre. I obtained a ticket from the parking machine but when placing the ticket on the dashboard the wind must have blown the ticket over, so date and time was not visible. I returned to my vehicle with a parking fine. I contested it with the parking attendant and presented my valid ticket which was still within the time. He said he was unable to revoke his decision and said I would have to speak to the council.

Hi. I was called back into work to see a client last year and parked in our parking space that we have permits for in the car park behind the building. There is usually an area I would park in by the building but one of our private ambulances was already there (I work for a funeral directors) I parked the car and went into the branch. I didn’t display the permit I admit because I honestly thought that as the permits are in my name under the business that on the off chance (on a dark, cold and rainy night) a warden was around I could provide copies of these and all would be okay. It seems not! I appealed the fine showing evidence that I hold a permit for the space. In addition I didn’t want to park miles away because I was pregnant at the time with a high risk pregnancy and when there is a space outside it seemed the better option then walking in the dark and rain. I provided a copy of my medical records showing this. Please bear in mind I was seeing to a bereaved family not just popping in the corner shop for a pint of milk. My appeal was rejected, I appealed again showing record of stress effecting my pregnancy, to which this was not helping. Still the appeal was rejected. I left it there as didn’t feel up to dealing with it. I have not paid as I have the whole thing sickening. I have recieved a letter from a debt collector who says if it is not paid they will advise the company to take it to court. If they take it to court surely I have a good case? I feel these people are money grabbers with no consideration at all. It’s a council car park but the fine is from a private parking firm. The council have already said although they sympathise it is out of their hands and with the parking firm.

If u don’t have your driving license with u have so many days to take to your police station y does this not apply to a blue it would save a lot of time and worry for disable users it taken me loads of phone calls and I still have to do it in writing as I can’t write very good anymore I will have to get someone else to do it I could not put my disabled card on winscreen because I have not receive it yet I do understand I could have put a piece of paper in window but not always possible

I was double parked for approx 4 mins whilst I dropped something off. Can I appeal it and would I be sucessfull

NO parking problems when you travel by public transport ! Give it a try ! NO hassle when driving either someone does it for you The distance you might have to walk does you no harm in fact it will do many drivers good to walk I am sure many have forgotten that they once learned to walk

Hi. I have been issued with a private car parking penalty notice while I going to get a ticket. The ticket says the car was observed between 10:35:03 to 10:36:13. Surely this is unreasonable? Unfortunately I no longer have the ticket as I didn’t think I had done anything wrong so threw it away. Do you think an appeal would work?
